Abstract
Marginalization of women is a widely researched social problem however, there are certain arenas where the marginalization has garnered increased attention in light of recent events. One such arena is the marginalization of women in healthcare. The intersectional nature of inequality causes a compounding phenomenon where a person’s life experience is dependent on how many proverbial boxes they check out of an infinite number of qualities or social constructs that are used to maintain a power disparity. Given that there are a near-infinite number of factors used in marginalization this analysis looks at just three and how they intersect with gender; first examined was gender as a sole factor then race, economic standing, and efforts of control were examined as intersectional factors. Research methodology was that of a literature review intertwined with a critical analysis of the factors.
